David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-1361:
---------------------------------------

While I agree that this should be the best practice, there is a big difference 
in the framework between what we "allow" and what we "recommend".

There is lots of stuff you _can_ do with the framework that is really not a 
good idea, thought some might disagree. Things that we recommend should be 
documented in the Best Practices Guide. Other things we don't want to make more 
difficult, IMO, that this is important because of the comment about 
disagreement above. There are pretty much always good reasons why we do things 
the way we recommend in the framework, but those recommendations have evolved 
over time and will continue to evolve as well, and not allowing things we don't 
recommend stifles this and limits opportunity to progress and improve.

That is of course a generality, and there is a clear best practice here that 
should be documented and it probably won't ever change, but I'm still against 
forcing on a matter of principle.
